Cutting myself off from God..

I don't know how to get close to God anymore. I try to pray, but when I really need it feels like no one's there. I really needed God the night I relapsed, but He wasn't. Most of me just wants to give up and forget about Him, but I just can't. But I still don't know how to be close to Him again. It feels like nothing works.

Please don't give up--I've been feeling the same way myself, but deep down I know that God is out there and he wants me to get closer to him. Giving up really isn't the answer.

Job was a righteous man of God, but had the things he valued taken away from him. He would pray and cry out to God but would receive no answer until later on. Just because Ты don't feel God doesn't mean he is there, and we shouldn't always depend on something tangible like what we can understand with our senses.

God wants us to Любовь and obey him with and without the "feeling" of his presence. I would recommend Ты read the Book of Job and learn about how during Jobs trials he didn't hear the word from God till almost the very end of the book.

Stay prayed up and righteous, trust me God is still there, he may be putting Ты through a trial so that Ты learn how to depend on him and in that become stronger in your faith. My prayers will go out to you.

I don't know where Ты live in the US besides under a rock (I read ur profile) but there is this amazing Christian camp called Lift Camp and it is LIFE CHANGING. I had never felt as close to God as I did that week in June. All Ты need to do is find a church that goes to it and go with them. It's for 7th to 12th grade. Other ways to find God are praying, just talking to Him, Чтение the Bible, going to church, and finding a study group. I think study groups are one of the most helpful things because Ты can talk to other people. Just hang in there and I will pray for you!

First thing Ты need to know is that God loves Ты very much. He has not left you. When Ты suffer, He is exactly where He was when Иисус was on the cross... Right by his childs side. Don't lose your sight on him because he will be there no matter what

Ты are not alone para-scene, i was there once, i could never cut myself off from god, but i didn't need to...it happened gradually over a long period of time, i never expected that i would become an atheist, never in a million years, but i don't know if maybe a different path may work for Ты than the one i took, what exactly did Ты relapse in? have Ты tried getting human help and counseling? maybe Ты just need someone to talk to, if Ты want to Ты can talk to me или someone else on the site who Ты trust

dont give up! Ты MUST stay strong, and keep believeing in him. he is there, and he loves and cares about you. Ты must always remember this. remember christ, and what he did for us. god knows that Ты long to meet him, and it might be that he is testing you, and your faith in him. keep praying and hoping. im sure that your prayers will awnsered eventually. remember, the farther works in mysterious ways.
